Default Another question about an LE2 setup

I'm going to try to start saving my money up to do the le2 heads and cam. I was just curious about how much I should expect to spend on the le2 package, valves, springs, and other top end parts, as well as the headers, stall, tune, TB, and the rest of the bolt ons to make this work.

well its 1800 for the cam and have the heads and intake done. the rest depends on what you get and where you get it. everything is priced different depending on brand/quality and the retailer. when you order lloyd will recomend certain spec's like header and tb size.

didn't you go through your whole block too craby? that will add some cost. if not building a motor from scratch, i'd say in the 5k range

Yeah im probably gonna go with pacesetter LT's and my slp catback thats already on there. Anyways, how much were your suspension mods? I want to make the car into a street/strip car eventually so It'll need to be able to hold the track.
